SemanticDiff information
What is SemanticDiff?
SemanticDiff is a programming language aware diff for Visual Studio Code and GitHub. It helps software developers understand code changes faster by hiding irrelevant changes, detecting moved code, and highlighting refactorings.
The SemanticDiff VS Code extension can be used to review changes locally, while the GitHub App helps you review pull requests in your browser with full GitHub review comment integration. SemanticDiff supports more than 10 languages and data formats, including TypeScript, Python, C#, Rust, Go and Java.






Comments and Reviews
When you use the SemanticDiff extension as developer, you can see the comparison before and after (for each commit) in the timeline of VS Code much clearer!
This saves time and effort when trying to understand what has changed in the code.
For my point of view, I would say code review is at least 5x clearer/faster with this extensions.
You can switch between the old display and the new display with just one button. 👍
Thanks to the team that developed SemanticDiff! 👌
